Martin Scorsese is lauded for his crime films, but this rare pivot into a thriller is one of his best collaborations with Leonardo DiCaprio.
The Big Picture Since 2002, Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio have collaborated on multiple feature films. With the hotly anticipated Killers of the Flower Moon on the horizon–– which will also bring frequent Scorsese mainstay Robert De Niro into the fold alongside Lily Gladstone and Jesse Plemons–– now is a great time to revisit Scorsese and DiCaprio's past work together.
Scorsese and his masterful, decades-long collaborator Thelma Schoonmaker cut together the film with small, disorienting moments–– most notably the invisible water glass during a scene between DiCaprio and Robin Bartlett–– that add to the suspenseful, surreal quality of the story. Editing, cinematography, and stark use of sound design and classical music are all tools Scorsese and his crew utilize to craft a thrilling, brilliantly staged mystery thriller.
This shift occurs in a climactic moment where Laeddis confronts Dr. Cawley, and finds out the entire detective story has been an intense therapeutic exercise with the hopes of curing his mania and restoring his original personality while allowing him to overcome his grief.
